I'm working on a big unwrap and when I auto-pack all the shells are scattered willy nilly for optimal UV coverage. The problem I have is a bunch of chain links and other tiny shells are strewn across the whole map, which is annoying when painting. Is it possible to group the chain link shells inside of UVLayout so when I auto-pack they are kept together as one chunk?

Cheers!

If you have the Professional version, you can put shells into boxes so they stay together during packing. Just select them with the left mouse button, then click the "New Box" button under the Pack panel.
